Has anyone out there ever thought they had depression,
and later learned they actually had a hormonal imbalance?
If so, share your experiences with me. I have been
diagnosed with 'cyclical depression'. I feel pretty
good half the month, and pretty damn shitty the other
half. I am just beginning to chart my moods and menstrual
cycles to see if there's any connection. I've been
reading a lot about peri-menopause and relating to a lot
of the symptoms (although I'm only 32, I only have one
ovary, which could contribute to imbalanced hormones).
I've made an appt. with an endocrinologist to get my
hormones tested. Just curious if any other women out
there have explored this possibility.
